So I missed the first NRL Hunter match in my area in March because wife and I had our first baby the week before. After that match the facility announced they’d be holding a one day NRL22x match in NRL Hunter format. Well well time to jump into a 22. Better not spend too much. Whoops. Like every rifle ever, it got away from me a bit.
CZ 457 VPT
18.5” Area 419 Lilja
Timney Trigger at 10oz
Area 419 Bolt Knob
12” Area 419 ARCA Rail
SCAR 35 MOA Rail
ARC M10 Rings
Meopta Optika6 4.5-27x50 MRAD1
Anarchy Outdoors Extended Mag Release
I tested 17 kinds of ammo with the factory barrel:
While there are some good groups here, i wasn’t that impressed with 100 yard+ groups. I just happened to see a FB post about Area 419 getting the Liljas in stock last week. I had planned on shooting Midas+ but the Lilja just really liked Tenex at 50 so I have a couple bricks coming to test out. If I do stay with Midas+, it should be fine as I also had a .62” 5 shot group at 100 and a 1.18” 5 shot group at 200 with the Midas+. We’ll see if the Tenex holds at longer range.
